Billy-A-Dick |
Every night while I’m undressin' |
Sayin' my prayers and lightly confessin' |
I can hear hot licks |
From a set of drums upstairs |
Well, it couldn’t be Johnny 'cause he isn’t there; |
Johnny’s overseas. |
We no not where |
But, believe it or not, every night on the dot |
I can hear a tenor drum say: |
Billy-a-dick, Billy-a-dick, tick, tack |
When’s that character comin' back? |
When’s that kid in the G.I. |
lid |
Gonna choo-choo down the track? |
Poor ol' me, I’m beat as can be |
And my rim has even started to rust |
Look at these sticks tryin' to take out the licks |
They’re covered with an inch of dust, beep-a-dust |
Billy-a-dick, Billy-a-dick, tick, tack |
When’s that character comin' back? |
When’s that boy with the jumpin' joy |
Gonna launch that last attack? |
If he’ll roll, roll, roll like a drumstick; |
Chewin', chewin', chewin' on a gumstick |
Jack, we’ll soon have a Japenese derby |
And beat it like a cymbal on a music rack |
Billy-a-dick, Billy-a-dick, tick, tack |
When’s that character comin' back? |
When’s that boy with the jumpin' joy |
Gonna launch that last attack? |
If he’ll roll, roll, roll like a drumstick; |
Chewin', chewin', chewin' on a gumstick |
Jack, we’ll soon have a Japenese derby |
And beat it like a cymbal on a music rack |
Billy-a-dick, Billy-a-dick, tick, tack |
Billy-a-dick, Billy-a-dick, tick, tack |
Billy-a-dick, Billy-a-dick, tick, tack |
When’s that character comin' back, Mom? |
